Taxing of online tutors

This discussion addresses the tax treatment for online tutors engaged as independent contractors. The core question revolves around whether income taxed under Section 194J (TDS) can be declared under the presumptive income scheme of Section 44AD, given that online tutoring isn't explicitly listed under 44ADA. The consensus suggests that TDS deduction under 194J is generally irrelevant when opting for presumptive income under 44AD.
